Full Coverage - An Insurance Agent's Duty to Advise?Robert G. Devetski, Partner, Barnes & Thornburg

Your Liability Insurer Agreed to Defend? Don't Relax YetJohn Fischer, Partner, Barnes & Thornburg
Getting your liability carrier to agree to defend you in a lawsuit is an important risk-management milestone; however, depending on the terms of the carrier’s acceptance, an entirely new set of issues and concerns may arise. This presentation identifies ten coverage issues that commonly arise even after a carrier agrees to defend, and suggests ways to address those issues to ensure that you get the full benefit of your policy.

This session will provide tips to help policyholders avoid or respond to exhaustion challenges by their excess insurers.
